Yes imprisoning people whose politics I disagree with is a great move! Why didn't we think of this sooner?

While I agree with the sentiment that spreading foreign-influenced propaganda is a bad thing, I think it's worrying that people are upvoting the suggestion of locking people up for stuff like that. Speech that is distasteful or you disagree with should not automatically be banned and surely not a reason for imprisoning people.

You were too busy blowing cops

But do you seriously think there shouldn’t be laws against using a media empire to spread foreign propaganda? Or just spread any propaganda that is wildly conflicting with the good of the people?

Do media outlets have zero responsibility in your mind?

What are you thoughts on https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/47/230 ? Should website owners be responsible for all the content posted on there?

I don't know what you are talking about. And I suspect you don't either.
